5 from 5 reviews

This healthy Alfredo Sauce gets its rich, creaminess from low fat cottage cheese! Blend all the ingredients in the blender or food processor and heat it briefly on the stove to thicken. So delicious!

  • 1 cups and 1/2 milk (or canned low fat milk)
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
  • 1 egg (or 2 whites)
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
